Businesses of all types rely on good accounting practices in order to run smoothly and ensure that their operation is making a profit. The methodologies may differ from company to company, but they all fall into one of two general categories: cash basis or accrual basis.

While net income is an important measure, many companies also look to EBIT for a more accurate snapshot of their finances.
